Jessica Szohr and her beau have said "I do!"

The Gossip Girl alum, 39, married former Vancouver Canucks player Brad Richardson in a scenic wedding at the luxury golf club Pine Canyon in Flagstaff, Ariz. surrounded by 150 of their closest family and friends.

"It was the most magical, beautiful day, filled with the people we love the most," Szohr told The Knot, which had an exclusive on event.

She also told the outlet that while she and Richardson, 39, had considered exchanging nuptials in Italy, Flagstaff had "given us so many memories as a family over the last couple of years." She explained, "It's such a vibe up there, in the mountains. I wanted to tie that in with this magnificent, fancy and chic dress, but I still wanted the flowers to have a bohemian look. It was like pieces of a puzzle coming together."

The bride wore three different Galia Lahav gowns for the big day, including the designer's Tokyogown, which was described in a press release to PEOPLE as "a fashion-forward, bold look" that "perfectly" reflected "her personality." She paired it with a custom veil, designed by Galia Lahav head designer Sharon Sever that also featured a special quote from her grandfather embellished in crystals that read: "Take Time to Smell the Roses."

"My grandpa was such a huge part of my childhood, and he always said that to us," she told The Knot. "My life was so fast with Gossip Girl, but he would always say, 'Just make sure you're taking time to smell the roses.' That stuck with me."

For the wedding after party, she and Richardson danced their first dance to "Faithfully" before changing into a custom mini strapless dress by Galia Lahav that featured more crystals and feathers at the top. She could be seen dancing the night away with her groom in the fitted dress with her hair up in a ponytail.

Several CW stars attended the soirée including Nina Dobrev, who served as her Maid of Honor and donned the Galia Lahav Elise dress in custom sage green. Chace Crawford, who also starred in Gossip Girl, was also present for the ceremony.

Szohr and Richardson went Instagram-official in 2019 and welcomed their first child together, daughter Bowie Ella Richardson, almost two years later on Jan. 11, 2021.
